General terms and conditions for the sale of products via the online shop within Switzerland
Important Note
This general terms and conditions covers only the delivery of products within Switzerland.
Due to the current corona situation as well as the currently high capacity utilization of the transport companies, delivery delays of 2 - 3 working days may occur, for which we ask for your understanding. We will do our best to deliver the products as soon as possible.
1. Applicability and Scope
The following General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") apply to all business relations between FaircoNG Sarl. (Hereinafter referred to as "FaircoNG Sarl Ltd.", "us" or "we") and the customer (hereinafter referred to as "customer", "buyer" or "you") for products (hereinafter referred to as "products" or "goods") purchased via our website www.wesen-home.ch (hereinafter referred to as "Online Shop" or "Website").
The Online Shop is operated by:
FaircoNG Sarl
Ch du Joran 6a, c/o Pierre Badoux
1260 Nyon, Switzerland
CHI-419.732.308
Individual agreements concluded with the customer shall take precedence over these General Terms and Conditions. Opposing conditions of the customer are not recognized.
FaircoNG Sarl reserves the right to change these GTC at any time. All changes become effective with the publication of the new GTC on the Website. The relevant time for the applicability of the valid GTC is the date of the submission of the binding order to us when purchasing a product.
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before placing a binding order. By placing a binding order, you agree to the following terms and conditions as well as our Privacy Policy and declare that you are authorized to conclude legally binding contracts and that you are at least 18 years old.
2. Conclusion of a Contract
The presentation of the products in the Online Shop is not a legally binding offer, but only a non-binding online catalogue or a non-binding invitation to customers to order the product in the Online Shop. FaircoNG Sarl expressly reserves the right to change the products as well as the contents, e.g. pictures, assortment, prices, and the descriptions of the products, at any time and without prior notice. Illustrations, pictures, brochures, advertising, and other information in connection with our products are for information purposes only and are not binding for FaircoNG Sarl.
The customer can place a binding order for the products selected by him/her via our Online Shop. The customer can put the products he/she selects into the "shopping cart". This is not yet considered a binding order. An order shall only be deemed to be binding when the customer clicks on the button ["order subject to payment"] on the order page at the end of the ordering process. Before submitting the order, the customer can change and view the details at any time, recognize any input errors and correct them if necessary, before the binding final submission of the order.
An order confirmation is sent to the customer immediately and automatically by e-mail. This confirmation e-mail contains the information of your order and our terms and conditions accepted by you during the ordering process. The confirmation e-mail only serves as information that we have received your order. The automatic order confirmation does not constitute a contract of sale. By sending the order you confirm that you have read the terms and conditions and that you agree to them without reservation. We recommend that you print out the GTC for the purpose of the online order and your documentation or save them on your computer.
After you have placed a binding order, FaircoNG Sarl. is free to either accept the order or reject it at its own discretion by sending you a corresponding notification by e-mail and without assuming liability towards you or third parties. Any payment already made will be refunded when the order is cancelled. Reasons for the rejection of an order may be, for example, if a product is no longer available, if we cannot obtain authorization for the customer's payment, or if there is a justified reason to believe that the customer is acting contrary to these terms and conditions, individual contracts, fraudulent or other criminal activities, or for any other important reason.
When the order is accepted, a binding purchase agreement with the customer is concluded. This acceptance takes place by shipping the ordered products.
Any commercial distribution or resale of our products is strictly prohibited.
3. Availability and reservation of performance for products not available
All information about the availability, shipping and delivery of a product is preliminary information and approximate guidelines. They do not represent binding or guaranteed shipping or delivery dates. Any liability for unavailable products or for delays in shipment or delivery is expressly excluded.
Our products are available as long as our stock lasts. If FaircoNG Sarl discovers during the processing of your order that the products you ordered are not available, we will inform you immediately. In this case, a contract for the non-available products will not be concluded as the ordered products cannot be delivered.
Furthermore, we reserve the right to limit the number of items that can be purchased by a customer. In this case we will inform the customer by e-mail accordingly.
4. Prices and Shipping Costs
Our products and prices correspond to those indicated on the Website. All prices are provided in CHF (Swiss Francs) and include the statutory value added tax (VAT) of 7.7% and where applicable, mention of any other taxes/fees. The total price of your order, including all additional charges and shipping costs, is displayed at the end of the ordering process.
By placing a binding order, you declare that you agree with the total price for the products ordered. After the binding order, the price cannot be adjusted.
FaircoNG Sarl reserves the right to change the prices at any time. The products will be charged on the basis of the prices offered at the time the binding order is placed.
5. Payment Conditions
Orders are generally due for payment immediately.
The customer has the option to pay with the means of payment, which are shown on the Website or during the ordering process. These may change from time to time and vary. In addition, we reserve the right not to offer certain payment methods in individual cases and to refer to other payment methods used by us (for example, to protect our credit risk only those that correspond to the respective credit rating). FaircoNG Sarl is expressly authorized by the customer to carry out credit checks at its own discretion and, if necessary, to pass on customer data to third parties for this purpose.
By choosing the means of payment, the customer authorizes the payment either by entering credit card data or access data of a payment service provider. The customer authorizes FaircoNG Sarl to accept or collect payments by the appropriate means. Should there be a chargeback, FaircoNG Sarl shall be entitled to reimbursement of the associated costs and bank processing fees. Furthermore, FaircoNG Sarl shall not be liable for any fees or other amounts that the card issuer or your bank may charge you as a result of processing your payment in accordance with your order.
If you pay with a credit card or an alternative payment method, we reserve the right to check the validity of the card, to check the availability parameters for collection and the address details and to request authorization from the card issuer or payment provider. You also confirm that the credit card is valid and that the payment details entered are correct. If payment is refused, FaircoNG Sarl reserves the right to cancel the order and stop shipping the products. In this case we will contact you immediately.
In the case of payment by invoice, the customer will receive the invoice with payment slip upon delivery of the goods or by e-mail. Payment must be made using the payment slip within the payment period indicated on the invoice. If payment is not made on time, FaircoNG Sarl shall be entitled to charge its expenses for each reminder of at least CHF 20.00 and other costs associated with the collection, as well as the statutory default interest. Should it become necessary to initiate debt collection, we will charge an additional processing fee of at least CHF 200.00.
6. Delivery Conditions
The delivery is generally made by the delivery service of the Swiss Post Ltd. For deliveries to Switzerland, the shipping costs are paid by FaircoNG Sarl. The desired delivery service can be defined during the ordering process. The costs incurred must be paid in advance by the buyer.
The products you order from our Online Shop and which are in stock will be delivered to you within 5-7 working days after receipt of full payment, depending on the destination. You can use the tracking number to track the current location of your order.
If the products are marked as out of stock when you place your order, FaircoNG Sarl will endeavor to deliver the products as soon as possible. FaircoNG Sarl will make every effort to meet the delivery times indicated. However, FaircoNG Sarl is not responsible for delays in delivery, regardless of the cause. We will inform you immediately of any delays in delivery.
If delivery has not been made within 3 weeks after the original delivery date, the customer is entitled to cancel his/her order. Further claims, in particular claims for damages, are excluded.
Should the delivery of the product fail through the fault of the customer despite unsuccessful delivery attempts, FaircoNG Sarl may withdraw from the contract. Any payments made will be refunded immediately.
7. Retention of title
FaircoNG Sarl remains the owner of the delivered products until they have been paid in full.
8. Right of revocation and return
Requirements
For all purchases of our products via our Online Shop (with the exception of certain products; cf. the restrictions about revocation below), FaircoNG Sarl grants the customer a voluntary right of revocation within 10 days of receipt of the products, without the customer having to justify this. The customer may withdraw from the contract within 10 days of receipt of the goods by returning the goods to us or by notifying us of the withdrawal in text form (e.g. letter, e-mail,). The 10-day return period begins on the day after receipt of the goods and is deemed to have been observed if the goods or the notice of cancellation are handed over to the post office or another transport company for return or dispatch on the last day.
The prerequisite for exercising the right of withdrawal is that you return the goods to us unused, complete and intact, if possible, in the original packaging. The goods including the completed return slip must be returned to the address mentioned on the confirmation order.
Consequences
The return of a product is at the expense and risk of the customer. Please have your return confirmed and keep this confirmation. In case of a parcel loss, your return can only be credited upon presentation of this document.
If the goods are properly returned, we will refund the total price paid by the customer no later than 30 days from the day we receive the goods. The refund will depend on the original payment method used and will always be made to the account used for the payment, unless otherwise expressly agreed with you. Please ensure that you have access to the bank account specified, as FaircoNG Sarl accepts no liability in this respect. Refunds will be made within 15-20 days after receipt of the goods by FaircoNG Sarl.
You will only be liable for any loss of value of the goods if such loss of value is resulting from the handling of the goods other than what is necessary to ascertain their condition, properties, and operation.
Restrictions on withdrawal
The right of revocation does not apply to contracts for the delivery of products that have been individualized according to your own specifications or that are clearly tailored to your needs (so-called customer-specific, individualized products) or if the delivery concerns products that are not suitable for return for health or hygiene reasons and whose packaging has been opened after delivery.
9. Notice of Defects, Warranty
FaircoNG Sarl warrants that the goods correspond to the warranted characteristics and that they have no defects that could impair their value or their suitability for the intended use.
Upon receipt of the products, the customer must check them immediately for correctness, completeness, and possible damage.
The Customer (or his delegate) is required to check, at the time of delivery of the Products by the Courier: that the number of packages delivered corresponds to that indicated on the delivery note; is that the packaging and its seals are intact, undamaged, not wet or altered in any way. Any damage to the packaging and / or the Product or the mismatch in the number of packages or indications must be immediately notified in writing on the delivery note of the Courier. Where permitted by current legislation, once the Courier's document has been signed without the Client having raised any exceptions, the Customer cannot make any objection about the exterior characteristics of the package delivered.
Any errors or damage must be reported to FaircoNG Sarl within 5 working days. Defects that could not be discovered during a proper inspection and only occur later must be reported in writing immediately after their discovery. If you do not inspect the defect or notify us immediately, the goods shall be deemed approved and you shall no longer be entitled to assert any claims against us.
FaircoNG Sarl decides at its own discretion about replacement delivery or rectification of defects. If subsequent delivery or rectification of defects fails, the customer shall be entitled in the event of significant defects to withdraw from the contract.
For notification of complaints or service questions, please contact us at the address mentioned on the order confirmation with the order number, customer number, a description of the fault and other helpful information:
The defective product must be returned with a copy of the invoice and a detailed description of the defect. The return of a product is at the expense and risk of the customer. Please have your return confirmed and keep this confirmation, as your warranty claim cannot be processed if the package is lost.

FaircoNG Sarl is liable for breach of its own obligations arising from these GTC and the contractual relationships based on them for damages caused and proven through unlawful intent or gross negligence.

Subject to the foregoing, the total liability under these GTC shall be limited, irrespective of the reason, and to the extent permitted by law, to the price of the goods which the customer has ordered from us.
Matter beyond our control
In the event of a matter beyond our control (so-called force majeure), we do not assume any liability or responsibility for the non-fulfilment or delayed fulfilment of any obligations arising from these GTC and the contractual relationship based on them. An event outside our sphere of influence is considered, for example, in the following cases:
Strikes, closures or other industrial actions by third parties, invasions, terrorist attacks, war, fire, explosions, storms, floods, earthquakes, epidemics, pandemics, other natural disasters, or the failure of public or private communication networks or the inability to use rail, shipping, air, road or other means of public or private transport.

15. Severability Clause
If one of the provisions of these terms and conditions is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. Unless otherwise agreed, the invalid provision shall be deemed to be replaced by a valid provision which takes the economic purpose of the provision and the will of the parties at the time of the conclusion of the contract into account as far as possible. The same applies to possible loopholes in these AGB.
17. Applicable Law and Venue
These GTC, the contractual relationships based on them and any disputes shall be governed exclusively by Swiss substantive Law, excluding the conflict of laws rules and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
The place of jurisdiction for natural persons is the registered office of FaircoNG Sarl or the customer's place of residence. For legal entities, the registered office of FaircoNG Sarl shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction.
